Australia / Can My Polish girlfriend get a working visa in Australia?? [28]
umm, we have a skilled migrant program and also have certain professions that need filling.
now, what happened was that all these lil college's started offering chef and hairdressing (they were in demand) courses to mainly Indian people and charging them $20-30k for the privilege. the problem being that the students never had any interest in working in these professions.
the government has now closed the loophole on this and from what i gather it is a lot harder.
so, in summary, find out what the skills shortage is, study a course in that area and then apply.
